6 Month Old Implants. I Want Them Out!

I'm two weeks out, and I'm absolutely loving my natural self! I love not having a foreign object in my body. I'd say follow your heart. If you're feeling that tug to have them removed, then I'd do it. I've also grown to LOVE smaller more natural looking breasts. Big fake breasts, are just that. They look fake. I'm kind of over that look...I see nothing sexier than a smaller breasted woman. They look natural and younger. That's my opinion though. Good luck to you!

With an uncomplicated explant, you will go back to looking quite similar to your pre-implant state. If you can accept and love your natural mom boobs, those are basically what you will get back. I had implants over the muscle, 12 years, and 2 breastfed babies with the implants in. I think my boobs ended up very similar to what they would have been (size, shape, texture) after babies anyway -- even though they took a beating with the implants over those years. Sooner is better than later! Only complication I've seen on explanted small boobs seems to be tethering of areola scars - are your incisions under breast? If not, you may want to consider explant from there anyway - although plenty of women go areola and don't get tethered scars as well. Take a breath and relax, living with implants in and hating them is hell, at least you have the courage and information available to reverse this right away instead of living with the implants long term.

Hi there you have certainly come to the rights site... There is lots of support on here Hun . Because of all the lovely ladies on here I had the strength and knowledge to explant... Although I had complications it wasn't a decision I took likely but I am 4 weeks today and it's the best decision I have ever made... There Are quite a few women on here that had very little or no breast tissue pre implant that now have ( check out su23 and read her review ) you will be pleasantly surprised ;0) I did have breast tissue pre implant but not a great deal... Mine were 600cc so was dreading having them out but I am more than happy... They are still healing and will change but health comes first so glad to be rid of the silicone ... Any info you need you will find on here ... We are all here to help one another Hun xxxx all the best [RS bleep]

Hi there, i recently got explanted a little over two wks ago. I had 450cc's too, I was also super terrified of how they would look. You've only had yours for 6 mos so I'm sure you'll bounce back nicely.

I was/am terrified! No joke. I thought if be really droopy, little, or deflated. Now, I did have a lift, as my implants had been in for ten years and they were rather big and stretched out. I agree with the other poster, you'll bounce back right away!

Breath. Seven days will not make a difference. Just relax. I know sometimes when we make up our minds on something then there isn't anything we can think about other than getting done what we have settled on. Try not to be too hard on yourself. I say this because I recently got to look at my old photos and I literally want to cry because now I see that my body was perfect (for me) just the way it was. The doc brought out the photos to remind me of why I had these put in in the first place and I told him I would be OVER THE MOON to have the same results. Alas, I know I wont because it's been 12 years and I've had one additional pregnancy (I had one before the BA and breast fed for 8 weeks). Anyway, I'm told that the breasts shrink down to roughly what they were before (give or take some if you have gained or lost weight). I'm sure you will go back to pretty much what you were before given you are young and it sounds like you have pretty good skin elasticity (per the story of your stomach). As far as how to use this site, you can share photos or not. I chose to share photos so that it may help others and this site offers anonymity and that makes me feel safe as well. However, you don't need to share photos and you will get encouragement either way! The ladies on here are really wonderful (and brave)!

Just a word to the wise, from my experience and from what I have read, almost all PS's suggest replacing the implants. Call it "car sales men" tactic or basically what they consider "beautiful", intentional or no, be prepared that this may happen. They way I look at it is that you can always get implants later. I personally would like to wait and see what mine look like after surgery. For some folks that isn't an option. I just want you to know that odds are they are going to look great. Your skin is still young and you haven't had them in for very long. Try not to let someone else scare you into making a decision that you don't want. If you read some of the other reviews on here some of these ladies are on their 3rd surgery. Some have went in to have them removed and were talked into getting smaller ones or new ones and they still came back, years later, to have them removed. Ultimately, you are the one that has to live with your body. Not your PS, not me, not any boyfriend or husband, but you. Do what's best for you. Good luck!
